Pluggable connector having multiple housing shells |
| 摘要 |
Pluggable connector including a contact array of electrical contacts for engaging corresponding contacts of a communication component. The pluggable connector also includes a connector housing having a mating end configured to mate with the communication component. The connector housing includes a first housing shell and a second housing shell that oppose each other and are coupled together to define a housing cavity therebetween. The contact array is disposed within the housing cavity. The first housing shell includes a plug collar that surrounds the contact array at the mating end. The plug collar has a leading edge and a back edge. The second housing shell interfaces with the back edge of the plug collar such that the plug collar extends from the second housing shell to the mating end. |

1. A pluggable connector comprising:
a circuit board including a contact array of contact pads for engaging corresponding contacts of a communication component; and a connector housing having a mating end configured to mate with the communication component, the connector housing including a first housing shell and a second housing shell that oppose each other and are coupled together to define a housing cavity therebetween, the contact array being disposed within the housing cavity, the first housing shell including a plug collar that surrounds the contact array at the mating end, the plug collar having a leading edge and a back edge, the second housing shell interfacing with the back edge of the plug collar such that the plug collar extends from the second housing shell to the mating end, the second housing shell includes a forward-facing front edge that directly engages the circuit board, wherein the contact pads of the circuit board are exposed at the mating end of the connector housing such that the contact pads are capable of engaging the corresponding contacts of the communication component during a mating operation between the communication component and the pluggable connector. |
